FS - Cummins 3/4 ton SLT + automatic

Located in Northwest Indiana - $14,000 obo (The only reason I'm selling this is because I need something that gets better than 18mpg - so I'm looking at Jetta diesels or equivalent and then I'll look around for a 70's-90's diesel pickup - and I'm asking this price (obo) because this is close to what I owe on it)

Mainly a daily driver - working in chicago and living in Indiana - need something better than 17-21 mpg - the heated seats are wonderful with a sore back!! especially on long drives - I bought this truck at 68,000 miles for a Daily Driver/hauler/work truck - but I drive more than anything else and need to find a cheaper mode of transportation now that I'm buying a house If you would like more information - please let me know!

Thank you for pointing out the kbb, and trust me, if I owed that amount on it, I'd probably ask for that amount. But, I've also taken into consideration everything that has been replaced in the front end and the parts that have been added (the stabilizer, as well as the rebuildable tracbar), and FASS fuel pump, and the programmer, I feel that it is worth a little more than what KBB has priced. (which is only about a grand and a half)

You got a picture of passenger side of motor along block by the exhaust mainifold? Also what block is it? Is it a 53 block. Should have a sticker on valve cover or other 53 stamps on block.

I've never been asked that...to be quite honest - I'll take a picture of it after work. Just curious - but what's it matter? Aren't all straight 6, 5.9 L, 24 vlv, VIN 6 (not 7-not the HO) motors assembled with the same parts? (pardon my idiocy if not)

ohhhh...ok. Well, I didn't mean any offense or anything by my response, I was just stating what I thought my truck was worth and the reason behind posting it for that price. I also wanted to remind him/everyone that I did put obo on there, so I am a little open to negotiations.

no im just sick of people posting their trucks on here for wayyyyyyy more then they are worth because they THINK they are worth it. so now everytime i see someone post a vehicle for more then the kbb i just post the link.

I gotcha - but I guess it just depends on what the aftermarket parts already installed are worth to the buyer. And as many people have told me in the past - what will asking more hurt? If someone were interested they would make an offer. Hence the "obo" . I'm no dealership, so I'm not restricted to whatever pricing they have. But, I thank you for posting that link, because I'm only asking about a grand a half more...obo.

Its never seen a snow plow so the front end hasn't been stressed yet, and its got a lot of luxurious on the inside which I could see people wanting - especially when its -15 outside.

99-01 can have the 53 block in them. So not all Cummins were created equal. About 100k of them were a bit weaker in the longevity department. I know someone who just had one blowning coolant out the side of block just this past weekend. Cummins actually did a partial buy back on that series of blocks. They would give you 1500 off a new block I think
